TIGSource Forums

Hi all TIG players,

I'm new here and sorry if I post to a wrong place.

I often have a question that if a small game studio with 2 full time developers can be treat as indie game developer.

I'm asking this  because I found a small game company early this year and is finding communities to meet other game developers. And I'm not sure this forum is the right place for me or not.

Thanks a lot and looking forward to chat with you all.

The definition of "indie" varies depending on who you ask (and it's been asked all too many times), but I'm sure most here would consider a 2-man operation to be indie, provided their choices aren't being dictated by the threat of Activision or EA pulling funding or something like that.

Besides, there's no need to be worried that this forum isn't "the right place" for you - I can't say if it's true for everybody here, but generally we don't riot and drive people out of here unless they're being total asshats.

Thanks iffi for the quick reply.   :)

Don't worry, I'm sure you're fine. If i'm accepted, then you should have no problem.

If a two-man studio is not indie, I don't know what is.

I mean Notch is still considered indie and he's got like a thousand codemonkeys in his studio and a bajillion dollars of cash.  :handmoneyL: :handmoneyR:

I'd worry less about bullshit titles and worry more about the quality of what you make.
